Sorry. Out of town for Fathers Day. Spent whole day watching US Open with my dad and driving home the 4 hour drive.

Home teams push their record to 11-1. Home court was never more important than in the U of Indy / Harding game. Harding let 54-48 with 2:54 to go and U of Indy goes on a 13-0 run to close the game. Harding hit a meaningless 3 at the buzzer.

Rule 5. BASKETBALL TIEBREAKER RULE - ALL CLASSESA. If two teams are tied from regular season conference play,tiebreaker procedures will be:1. Head to head in regular season conference play.2. If the two teams have split, margin of victory between thetwo teams, with a maximum of 10 points per game.3. If the two teams are still tied, all winning conferencegame points, with a maximum of 10 points per game.4. Forfeited games. Offended teams shall receive 10points when tabulating the sum of the winning marginsfor breaking conference ties.5. If the two teams are still tied, a coin flip by the ArkansasActivities Association's Executive Director will decideseeding.B. If three teams are in a three-way tie from regular seasonconference play, tie breaker procedures will be: Head-toheadcompetition. If one team has been defeated by one ofthe other teams twice, they would be eliminated. The tworemaining teams would go to step two listed above for twoteams that are tied. If step two does not break the tie, stepthree would follow, then step four.C. If three teams are tied and each team has split (or a perfecttriangle), tiebreaker procedures will be: Margin of victory inall conference games, with a maximum of 10 points pergame.D. After tabulating the sum of the winning margins, all teamsexcept the two with the greater sum shall be eliminated andthe selection process shall begin again with paragraph (A).E. If four or more teams were tied, the margin of victory in allconference games would be used, with a maximum of 10points per game. Head-to-head competition would decidethe two teams with the most points. If these teams hadsplit victories, margin of victory between the two teams,with a maximum of 10 points per game.F. If the two teams remain tied, the team with the most totalpoints would receive the place for the first team (if both tiedwith the same number of points, a coin toss would be usedto decide the first team). This procedure would continueuntil all places were filled.

In the 24 seasons of doing this, we didn't need a tie-breaker until last season. Then we needed one two years in a row. I'm just glad when I screwed up the tie-breaker last year that I named the correct champion.

you had 2 +10's?!? I'm with you though. I see a shift in home court advantage in the engine.
